Takeaways

• The price of corn has experienced a downturn, but it is uncertain whether the market has hit the bottom. A technical buy signal, such as a weekly close over 401, would indicate a potential low.

• Increased demand for bean oil, particularly for renewable diesel, could increase soybean prices.
• The cattle market is heavy, and producers are advised to lock prices to mitigate potential declines.
• The hog market is oversupplied, but an increase in Chinese demand could lead to an upturn in it.
• The Moving Iron Summit is a valuable event for those interested in the equipment business and the driving factors behind it.

Takeaways

• The hog market is facing supply issues, with liquidation and increased efficiency in hog production. Pork exports are also a concern, with sales at a recent marketing year low.
